Today was interesting and it was a lot to take in. The Joe Parker talk was interesting because we got to hear how the “curtain” didn’t close and the natives are still speaking out against the wrong doings. The talk Saginaw Grant gave was one of the most influential talks I have ever heard because he shared his wisdom on how us native youth should live. He discussed that we should have what makes us comfortable and not to be jealous or want more than what we are already fine with. A change I would like to see is the end of racism, even though it’s a long shot I think humans have what it takes to end hate groups such as the KKK, Neo-Nazis, and black panthers. If we didn’t have labels and stereotypes everyone would learn to love and accept each other regardless of ethnicity and religion.
